over time, he had somewhat gotten over that. traveling, passing through small villages and moving with groups, it was a skill he needed to get through life. socializing was still something he was learning, but prompto knew how to put up a front. he was doing it now as two others joined he and noctis at the gate. golden ears perked upward at steve's initial question, asking his name. right. more introductions. he glanced briefly at the leopard, a small acknowledgement to his words, before looking again to steve.

"prompto," the retriever mix stated happily. "nice ta meet'cha." a grin graced his features, lopsided and bright, before blue eyes settled on crypticwhisper as he processed the other's words. "oh! yeah! i'd like to stay. is that okay?"

prompto's attention promptly returned to noctis as he spoke again. his eyes dropped down to his camera for a moment, then back to the other, and he smiled lightly. "more of a hobby. i've always wanted to go professional, though. you ever want a shoot, i'm your guy!" a somewhat indirect way of trying to get a picture of him, as he wasn't about to blurt out how photogenic he was and how good he would look with the sun's orange rays bathing him in light and reflecting off of those dark, mysterious eyes━

stop that.

he grinned. "anyways! uhh," the canine paused, bringing a paw up to rub sheepishly at a freckled cheek. "is any empty house free for taking? i think it'd be good for me to settle in for the night. haven't had a good rest for a while, y'know?"
